  1. Good luck and congrats!!!!
  2. Congrats!! I just got my approval letter faxed to me from my insurance...the surgeon did not even have it yet so I then faxed it to them, lol....they said allow 24-48 for them to contact me to set up a surgery date and pre op stuff...more waiting, so close yet so far....lol
  3. I have BCBS MN through my employer and they required 6 months weight loss effort in the last 2 years, with 3 months consecutive in those 6 months, so I just set a monthly appointment with my primary strictly to talk about weight loss efforts, have her weigh me, discuss various diet plans, etc.and she gave me a copy of each office note that I gave to my surgeon...it satisfied the insurance company and the surgeons requirements too. Good luck!!
  4. The Dr may have forgotten to submit it, or the insurance overlooked it....same thing happened to me, we filed appeal with the requested records (again) and a letter from me as well as a cover sheet from the dr specifying exactly what pages contain what info....approved on appeal the next day!! Good luck!!

  10. Another option I read on another thread was to add pure orange extract to the vanilla shake...I tried it and it tastes like a dreamsicle...I bet it would be a great treat frozen too!
